Abstract

L'invention porte sur un transducteur ultrasonique, qui comprend une plaque d'usure (2), un élément piézoélectrique (8) disposé à l'arrière de la plaque d'usure et un bloc rigide (16) disposé à l'arrière de l'élément piézoélectrique, et configuré de façon à constituer une masse d'appui pour l'élément piézoélectrique. La plaque d'usure s'étend sur l'élément piézoélectrique et vers l'arrière de façon à constituer un capuchon sur l'élément piézoélectrique et des côtés d'au moins une partie avant du bloc rigide.
